Which Media Composer EDL Manager templates lift the 8-character reel limit, and where does it take the reel name from, according to an Avid document newer than the 2013 File-Based Workflows Guide?
Zero-fetch re-read of a cycle-2 pin (C2-B89-U2 bibliography S4, listed there but not used in its claims). Avid's 2014 Media Composer white paper says EDL Manager offers File_16 and File_32 templates that lift CMX3600's 8-character source-reel limit (and raise the event limit), names Tape then Source File as the default reel source, and lists Labroll, Camroll and SoundRoll as alternative source columns. It is dated 2014, one year after the 2013 guide, so it does not establish current (2025/2026) Media Composer behaviour; no current EDL Manager page was fetched (storage stop) and the 2025 Editing Guide in the catalogue was not read for this.
